2238894 - Selectively Hiding MDF translations

When we want to hide certain language translations from the Metadata Framework objects (MDF), we can do this via an object definition called "Translations" /GOLocalizedData.

Prerequisite: RBP access enabled for MDF objects view, edit and delete.

What is MDF object translation? How to find out which translations are enabled?

Go to Admin Center -> Manage Data, select any MDF object, for example Message Definitions -> click on Globe symbol beside text field.

We have below enabled translations and we can remove French (Canada).

To remove go back to Object Definition of Translations -> Make correction -> Navigate to fr_CA and to selectively disabling language translations, please click on Details link.

You can see all the locale/ language for MDF translations available here. Please note that these languages need to be already enabled at provisioning (backend).

Make the visiblity set as Not Visible.

You can go back to Manage data-> Message Definition and veify the translations by cliking on Globe icon. French (Canada) is now not visible.
